Outdoor Classroom Day is a global campaign to celebrate and inspire outdoor learning and play! On Thursday November 7th, join Nature Play NT and thousands of schools around Australia by taking lessons outside and prioritising playtime.
Last year saw 300,000 children at more than 2,500 schools and early learning centres taking part in Outdoor Classroom Day, and this year we want even more to join in!
What is Outdoor Classroom Day?
Outdoor Classroom Day is a day to celebrate and inspire outdoor learning and play. On Thursday 7 November 2019, thousands of schools around Australia will take lessons outside and prioritise playtime.
Why? Outdoor learning improves children’s health, engages them with learning and leads to a greater connection with nature. Play not only teaches critical life skills such as resilience, teamwork and creativity, but is central to children’s enjoyment of childhood. With increasing pressures on childhood, children today are too often overprotected, overscheduled, and overly attached to screens, which is why it’s more crucial than ever before to help get children outdoors.
Get Involved!
It’s easy to get involved and there is something everyone can do!
If you’re a teacher, educator or school administrator and new to outdoor learning, why not use Outdoor Classroom Day to try it out? Or, if you’re already involved in outdoor learning, use the day to celebrate what you do and inspire other teachers around the world to join in.
We've got lesson plans, posters, inspiration, hints and tips - everything you need to celebrate an amazing Outdoor Classroom Day!
